politics

This meme cast by @wake.eth made me think of this quote from Barry Goldwater who was famous for bringing the "far right to center stage": 

“Mark my word, if and when these preachers get control of the [Republican] party, and they're sure trying to do so, it's going to be a terrible damn problem. Frankly, these people frighten me. Politics and governing demand compromise. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can't and won't compromise. I know, I've tried to deal with them.”
― Barry Goldwater

Barry Goldwater was a US Senator from Arizona who was famous for saying “Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice”.

Republicans want a weird king. That's... unusual, nearly traitorous.
On the whole, I prefer Hamilton's America over whatever Putin wants.

Need a libertarian party candidate man but in our dreams 😂🤣

Reply guy here for memes and crypto |

The biggest risk is not taking one 📈

we need an /actual/ libertarian party for that. what we have is thinly veiled republican talking points + rand paul's smug bullshit.

I was a Ron guy as a young lad. Not sure what happened to his dense kid

libertarianism is a difficult politic to maintain without contradiction. as a goal for "maximal freedom" i find it appealing, but it's really tough to get it to jive philosophically with other american cultural infra.

i'll take ANY REASONABLE ADULT at this point and LOOK FORWARD to having boring conversation about what makes an ethical citizen tho

we ain't there yet. far from it lol

Yeah unfortunately it's a sad reality 

The republican party is full of shit and the libertarian party is a joke
